In a securities filing, BM&FBovespa said Esteves, 47, was
notified of Esteves's resignation, which took place Sunday, by
BTG Pactual. BM&FBovespa's board will meet in "an
appropriate time" to name a replacement for Esteves, the filing
added.

Brazil's Supreme Federal Court agreed on Sunday to keep
Esteves jailed for an indefinite period as prosecutors prepare
to file charges against him for his alleged involvement in a
corruption scandal.
